>> His name was Fleming, and he was a poor Scottish farmer. One day, while
>> trying to make a living for his family, he heard a cry for help coming
>> from
>> a nearby bog. He dropped his tools and ran to the bog.
>>
>> There, mired to his waist in black muck, was a terrified boy, screaming
>> and struggling to free himself. Farmer Fleming saved the lad from what
>> could
>> have been a slow and terrifying death.
>>
>>
>>
>> The next day, a fancy carriage pulled up to the Scotsman's sparse
>> surroundings. An elegantly dressed nobleman stepped out and introduced
>> himself as the father of the boy Farmer Fleming had saved.
>>
>>
>>
>> 'I want to repay you,' said the nobleman. 'You saved my son's life.'
>>
>>
>>
>> 'No, I can't accept payment for what I did,' the Scottish farmer replied
>> waving off the offer. At that moment, the farmer's own son came to the
>> door
>> of the family hovel.
>>
>>
>>
>> 'Is that your son?' the nobleman asked.
>>
>>
>>
>> 'Yes,' the farmer replied proudly.
>>
>>
>>
>> 'I'll make you a deal. Let me provide him with the level of education my
>> own son will enjoy If the lad is anything like his father, he'll no
>> doubt
>> grow to be a man we both will be proud of.' And that he did.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> Farmer Fleming's son attended the very best schools and in time,
>> graduated from St. Mary's Hospital Medical School in London, and went on
>> to
>> become known throughout the world as the noted Sir Alexander Fleming,
>> the
>> discoverer of Penicillin.
>>
>>
>>
>> Years afterward, the same nobleman's son who was saved from the bog was
>> stricken with pneumonia.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> What saved his life this time? Penicillin.
>>
>>
>>
>> The name of the nobleman? Lord Randolph Churchill .. His son's name?
>>
>>
>>
>> Sir Winston Churchill.
>>
>>
>>
>> Someone once said: What goes around comes around.
>>
>>
>>
>> Work like you don't need the money.
>>
>>
>>
>> Love like you've never been hurt.
>>
>>
>>
>> Dance like nobody's watching.
>>
>>
>>
>> Sing like nobody's listening.
>>
>>
>>
>> Live like it's Heaven on Earth.
>>
>>
>>
>> It's National Friendship Week. Send this to
>> everyone you consider
>>
>>
>>
>> A FRIEND.
>>
>>
>>
>> Pass this on, and brighten some one's day.
>>
>>
>>
>> May there always be work for your hands to do;
>>
>>
>>
>> May your purse always hold a coin or two;
>>
>>
>>
>> May the sun always shine on your windowpane;
>>
>>
>>
>> May a rainbow be certain to follow each rain;
>>
>>
>>
>> May the hand of a friend always be near you;
>>
>>
>>
>> May God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.
